Comments about Dean Edge 8 8-String Electric Bass:
I was impressed with the big sound, loud pick-ups, low action, perfect set-up right out of the box, great tone of the roundwounds, comfortable weight balance of the neck, tight tuners, great value. I also purchased the formfit hardshell case which was a great value. This bass will fill the void in a three piece group. Just wait till you play it on Hendrix "Fire" or "Play That Funky Music" or "Funk 49"....
Comments about Dean Edge 8 8-String Electric Bass:
My only disconcern is that the bass has been discontinued from Dean and I can't get Dean to respond via phone/email and let me know the string sizes from factory so I'll know what to go with when the time comes.
WOW! I bought the Dean Edge 8 8 string bass with high expectations and it met AND exceeded all of them! It came in with no need for a set up or the neck needing any tweeking (I had it checked), which is surprising since it was sold on-line. The tone is absolutely amazing with super low end and great highs. It is the perfect addition to my collection and will probably be the main bass for playing live and for recording.
Excellent guitar! Amazing sound and completely ready to play live, right out of the box!
Totally worth the money!
Comments about Dean Edge 8 8-String Electric Bass:
I am very happy with my Dean Edge 8, now that it's working. When I first got it, there were a couple loose wires, and so it would stop producing noise after a few minutes of playing. I got the pre-amp replaced (Dean was nice enough to send it for free), and now it plays like a dream. The pickups could be a bit more powerful but besides that it's a great instrument.
Comments about Dean Edge 8 8-String Electric Bass:
An 8 String bass has a sound that is truely unique.In the studio this Dean 8 string sounds great clean or dirty. If you want a big sound try this 8 string through an overdiven tube amp.Clean, it sounds like a piano.The brass nut is a big plus. The pickups are great!I'm very happy with the Edge 8 String!
Comments about Dean Edge 8 8-String Electric Bass:
I was looking for a new bass to upgrade from my Squier Standard Jazz, I was always interested in 8 strings, so I went ahead and bought myself this bass. Dean did an INCREDIBLE job with it. It played perfectly right out of the box with little tuning adjustment needed. It takes a few seconds to get used to the slightly wider neck, but it's very easy to play regardless if this is your first 8 string or not. Tone is incredible on this, thanks in part to the active electronics. This is now my main axe and I recommend it to anyone.

this is one awesome guitar. the resonance that this thing puts out is beautiful. and its looks are killer. people just gawk when they see me pull out my eight-string. i love that. i absolutely love this guitar. this is the absolute best guitar i have ever owned. i wouldn't trade this one for anything.
Comments about Dean Edge 8 8-String Electric Bass:
I've only had my Dean a few days but I felt compelled to write something about it here. This bass is amazing. I bought it to play in my metal band, we tune down to drop C and the octave up strings really help the overall sound coming from a bass tuned that low. The band all love it too, I thought that it might be too much in a band with two guitarists (who both have a pretty bass heavy sound) but it compliments their sound nicely. The extra octave cuts through the bands mix but it doesn't dominate it, you still get a nice extra low thud from the regular strings too.Playing wise its pretty easy to play. I can slap on it fine, the only thing which I find a bit harder is right hand backslaps (scraping my thumb accross the strings) but I've got used to it pretty much already. Some chords are a bit tricky too. In fact I think this bass is easier to play than a regular one in many respects.I also own a Fender Jazz, an Ibanez BTB400QM and a Honer BBass V - the Dean is the best sounding of them all. This bass should cost twice as much.

I got one of these about a year ago and I love it! One of the best basses I have ever owned.
Comments about Dean Edge 8 8-String Electric Bass:
I have owned this bass for 8 months now and i have to say i love this bass. i own three of them but this is the only one i ever play anymore. the sound is just amazing, especially if you are looking for that rock sound. I would have been willing to pay much more for this guitar, but at this price, it is just an incredible deal. i couldn't be happier with this guitar, this will be the last guitar i buy for a while, i don't need another one after having this one. it has definitely spoiled me. Dean did one awesome job with this guitar.
